Does the runner have to go back to tag-up then get 2nd or does she advance without tagging-up and get 3rd?
Do you know which rule explains it clearly for ASA, NFHS, and USSSA?

Assuming she hadn't already reached 2nd base at the time of the throw...
ASA:
The award is 3rd base. She's still required to tag up after the ball goes out of play. If she fails to do so, she's subject to appeal once the ball is returned.

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!
I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
